Watch José Viana, Senior Advisor of Educational Partnership at Lexia Learning, as he gives you strategies to help you better address the needs of emergent bilingual students during this time. In this recorded edWebinar, we review:

• Strategies for implementing remote learning contingency plans, focusing on selecting programs that maintain the rigor and focus on long-term student outcomes

This recorded edWebinar will be of interest to teachers and school and district leaders of the kindergarten through elementary levels.
